HI-CHEW Gummies are making their way to the 2024 Sweets & Snacks Expo as a new product from the candy chew brand that's formulated to deliver an alternative textural experience for snackers. The product is observed in both Gummies and Gummies Sour varieties, which are both crafted with the brand's signature square-shaped candy in mind. Each piece, however, reveals a soft texture with ample flavor to boot, which includes Peach, Mango and Strawberry, while the Sour options come in Green Apple, Pineapple and Watermelon flavors.
Chief Representative for the USA & President, CEO of Morinaga America Teruhiro Kawabe (Terry) commented on the new HI-CHEW Gummies saying, "The launch of HI-CHEW Gummies and HI-CHEW Gummies Sour is an exciting next step for us in expanding our texture offerings.
